This is a question we get often. Podiatrists are health professionals that undertake a Bachelor of Applied Science or Podiatric Medicine at university for 4 years. We only get one set of feet so it's a good idea to look after them! Our podiatrists are all university trained and registered nationally and you DO NOT NEED A REFERRAL.
We assess and treat all ages, from toddlers to the elderly. The conditions we see on a regular basis include HEEL / ARCH PAIN, BALL OF FOOT PAIN, BUNIONS, CORNS/CALLUS and INGROWN TOE NAILS. So, if you are someone who does have a foot and/or lower limb problem. Jump on the phone and give us a call.

Report
Dry needling is a form of 'Acupuncture' and is useful in treating many lower leg, ankle and foot conditions such as shin splints, peroneal tendonitis, Achilles tendinopathy. If you are suffering with foot pain, limping out of bed with heel pain or arthritis or not running like you used to, it is quite possible that we can help.
Corns & Callus
Report
Corns and callus are areas of thickened skin that occur from abnormal pressure. The skin protects itself from pressure by getting thicker which creates a callus or a more localised corn. Corns are usually circular and deep and feel like a piece of glass or rock inside. If left too long, the skin underneath may ulcerate requiring urgent podiatry treatment and wound care.
Cracked Heels
Report
Cracked heels can occur in both men and women and can be extremely painful if not fixed quickly. Pressure - Spending a long time standing at work or home can stress the skin on your heels. We often see Tradies with cracked heels who need to re-assess their socks and boots. Obesity - Being overweight can increase the pressure on the fat pad under the heel.
Diabetes Foot Care
Report
Diabetes assessments are regularly performed at Brindabella Podiatry and the Diabetes Association does recommend a podiatric review every six months. The reason why it is important to have your feet checked when you have diabetes is because it's common to suffer complications with the vascular (blood) and nerve systems.
